.swf file are cashed. The .fla files are the actual files you can edit. You
won't see those on the internet. .Spl files should be cashed as well.
Anything that implemented locally will be in your cash.

If it run from a server like a .asp(Active Server Page) then it might not
show up, because the coding was called from the server not your browser. I
am not certain how to implement a server side run. I guess you could call it
from a .asp file?

Remember if you run stuff from the server like .cgi or .asp they can slow
down the server and cause it to run very slow. So you want to ask yourself
if your site is going to generate alot of attention and how much information
are you sending. I would say to go with having them download it to there
browser like most people are doing. Many Web hosting sites do not allow for
server side scripting or they try to limit it as much as possible.
